Inglorious Bastards now?

Defying all of the odds, apparently, Quentin Tarantino is going to start preproduction on INGLORIOUS BASTARDS as soon as possible. Possibly right now. Probably as we speak:

[At this] weekend’s Rolling Roadshow “Leone Edition” in Almeria, Spain, Quentin was said to attend and introduce The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, but according to the organizers, he has in fact “cancelled and will not be introducing the shows. He has cleared all appearances to begin preproduction on his new feature, INGLORIOUS BASTARDS.”

I guess that if true, that is a pretty strong statement that the film is really happening now. There’s still time for him to decide that there are more pressing matters, like THE VEGA BROTHERS, or another exploitation flick, or a major cocaine bender, but yeah, it looks like we can start getting excited. So, ready? Go! Be excited!
